London Film School (LFS) is marking its 70th anniversary with a special season of student film screenings at The Garden Cinema, running throughout May, June, and July 2026. This unique programme celebrates the School’s legacy while showcasing the creativity, diversity, and innovation of emerging filmmaking talent.

We’re excited to share a major new opportunity for students at London Film School: those enrolled in our MA Film Marketing programme will attend the Toronto International Film Festival (TIFF).

Recognised as one of the most prestigious and influential film festivals in the world, TIFF brings together studios, distributors, sales agents, brand partners, and media from across the global screen industries each September. It’s not just a celebration of cinema – it’s a dynamic marketplace where deals are made, campaigns are launched, and industry relationships are forged.

We recently had the pleasure of being the Guest Film School at the 48th edition of the Clermont-Ferrand International Short Film Festival. This was a wonderful opportunity for the School to be recognised for its role in nurturing emerging talent in film and its contribution to cinema. Six students joined us at the festival, where they had the chance to pitch their films, network with industry professionals and explore the world’s largest short film market.

2026 started with a bang! We've got all the details for you, so get comfortable and read on to learn about the latest achievements of our grads and alumni.

The series won Best Drama Series and Best Cinematography Fiction (Tim Kuhn and Jieun Yi) at the German Television Awards, and was nominated for Best Actor, Best Actress, Best Directing Fiction and Best Editing Fiction – an incredible achievement!
